About this event

  • 2 hours

This book, edited by Dr Elizabeth Phillips and Dr Férdia Stone Davis, offers critical insights into the relationship between Catholic Social Teaching, Catholic social thought, and the prison system and chaplaincy, probing the roles, limitations, and potential of each in fostering social action and pastoral care.

Whether you are interested in theology, Catholic social thought, social action, or prison chaplaincy, this book provides compelling proposals and critical reflections on the synergy between faith and social practice in the realm of prison ministry.

Bishop Richard Moth (Lead Bishop for Prisons for the Catholic Bishops' Conference of England and Wales) will join us online for the launch, offering a few thoughts on the book.

All are welcome to join us. For those unable to attend in person, we are pleased to offer the option to join us online.
